The granted patent (Publication Number: US11898283B2) discloses a method for producing a laminate with multiple stacked spunbond nonwoven layers. The method involves creating these layers using crimped continuous filaments with varying degrees of crimping, each layer consisting of multicomponent filaments with specific plastic components. The molecular weight distribution of the plastic components is also carefully controlled to achieve desired properties in the final laminate.

Furthermore, the method includes steps for adjusting the melt flow rate, molecular weight distribution, and melting point differences between the plastic components to further enhance the characteristics of the spunbond nonwoven layers. The patent also details the use of supply units and spinning pumps to regulate the output rate of the plastic components during production, allowing for the variation of crimping in the layers. Additionally, the method involves calendering the laminate and controlling the transfer process from conveyor to calender to ensure optimal results. Overall, the patent outlines a comprehensive process for creating high-quality laminates with specific material properties and structural characteristics.
